Pros:

The bedroom appeared clean

Cons:

Shared bathroom needed extra attention and smelled like mold. At one point I needed to ask the staff to fill the liquid soap which had been empty for over 24 hours

Wish we’d paid more to stay elsewhere, felt icky
Pros:

Quirky with a point of view. Bed sheets felt clean

Cons:

Did not feel clean. Rugs in room and bathroom had seen a lot… shower had scum in drain. Area wasn’t a great part of Anchorage. Woman who checked us in was very distressed, was an odd and prolonged interaction that made us uncomfortable.

Pros:

The room was cute. The place was clean. It was way over priced but that is Anchorage in the summer.

Cons:

When I arrived, there was a sign stating no alcohol in the rooms. I like a glass or two of wine at night. If this was the case, it should be stated on their site. When I asked why, a man in the lobby stated "because the Eskimos get too drunk" or something along those lines. I am Alaskan native. I found this very offensive. My daughter was with me to help me with my luggage. Staff asked for her ID. As she wasn't staying there, we declined to give her ID. Their reason offered was that anyone going into the rooms needed to show management ID. No. When my daughter was helping me with my luggage, staff said she needed to stay outside. We ignored the staff while my daughter took my heavy bag up the stairs.

The facility felt like a sober living home. I don't begrudge anyone this but I wasn't checking into a sober living home, I was checking into the room I booked online and which cost over 200 a night. Bathroom was across the hall.

Either be forthright with information, or educate staff to not treat clients as if they were getting ready to have a big drunken party. If I could have walked out at that time I would have. But there are no refunds.

I had also messaged the site previously to request a room with en suite bathroom. That did not happen. Other than that, everyone else was nice.

Great place to stay
Pros:

Very nice and clean. We took room with attached bathroom. It had twin beds. The room and bathroom were very clean. The area around is also good. There is a strip mall right opposite which has a grocery store and Walmart is one mile away.
We went on a 2 hour trolley tour which was the best way to see Anchorage
No fridge in the room but there’s a big common fridge in the kitchen
There is tea and coffee all the time
The staff is very friendly and helpful. The lady and gentleman at front desk are very nice

Cons:

The room was 80 degrees and no air conditioning. There was a small oscillating fan. Sweating so bad we checked and decided to sleep in our car and drive 700 miles to next town.
